I am very new to this, but have been doing some reading. I am also a very curious soul that likes to understand what is going on. I obtained the computer in a raffle, so I did not get to research or pick the loop. I might eventually swap it to copper or take it out and air cool. I don't really overclock. For me, reliability lower sound level and not high maintenance are the three most important in my PC. Its not a perfect match. In fact, its had several issues, but it was a pre-release... so who knows. I do know that I need to learn how to flush it and refill it without making a mess... this last time was bad.
I have one of the powerspec EKWB systems with an all aluminum and acrylic loop. I am not sure what fluid I should run in it. It came the the EKWB coolant, and it gunked it up a little in less than a year. I used primochill dye, so maybe that played a role I don't know. I have been told no kill coils and no PT nuke. Any thoughts?
I am also curious. I have read that AIOs are generally aluminum, and require no maintenance. Would it be possible to run fluids longer on an aluminum custom loop? I have very little air in mine, usually about 2CC of air right at the top of the block where the port is. I could make a modification to reduce the air even further if needed.
